    Encryption wasn’t relevant in the context of the surveillance-law, as having ways to decrypt it will be required then and hence make it useless.

    Telegram does not bow. They won’t bend their knee to a government wanting them to plant a bot. They then will just be banned.

    Besides, there is end2end-encryption if you want, where is the problen? Noone forces you to use the cloud. And it’s also not “hidden deep”.

      you have to open chat, click profile picture of contact, and then click the three dot menu from there, where you will find the option. It is buried deep down.

        If that’s “buried deep” to you, then maybe that technology isn’t your thing. Beside that was totally irrelevant to the topic at all. If you don’t like tgram, use something else. It’s not a pro/contra encryption discussion, it’s anti-observation.

        If a messenger is still alive after this law gets real, then you have your answer regarding security and privacy.
